Default New spoilers

Does anybody have any idea where to get these new longer lip spoilers that a couple of people seem to have?
Here's the thread that has a pic of one:
Post number 33

I think the factory lip spoiler looks good but since this car has come out I've been saying that this car would be fire if it had a spoiler like that.
Anybody know where to get one?

It might take a couple of years to get a new type of OEM spoiler. A lot of the redesigns for Toyota/Lexus cars are getting new spoilers, and it's typically done after the third model year.

If you are looking for an aftermarket spoiler, just make sure it isn't too rice-y. The car was designed to be simple and elegant, not outrageous and bling...

I think that spoiler is pretty nice. But it's not my style.

People are just way too judgemental these days when it comes to car accessories.

id go with the OEM spoiler instead.. ive seen this spoiler in person and the quality of the fiberglass is not that great. if you really like this spoiler id have a good body shop smooth out all the waves and uneven spots on it before painting.

I look at it from the other perspective - people are WAY too willing to stick damn near anything on their car just because it's available.

I blame the Japanese.
